In the last two years, Joss is the second to have passed away from the King of the Hill family. In August 2023 Johnny Hardwick, who voiced Dale Gribble, died.
For fans of the animated comedy, it is unclear if Joss or Hardwick finished their recordings for the upcoming reboot of the series. Hulu confirmed they were reviving it the same year of Hardwick's passing. It is supposed to hit the streaming platform on August 4 and will have 10 episodes, according to sources.
Outside of his 11-year run on the program, Joss was also on Parks and Recreation, Ray Donovan, and Tulsa King. In terms of movie roles, he appeared in True Grit, The Magnificent Seven, and The Forever Purge.
But that aside, our deepest thoughts go out to those affected by Joss' untimely passing.
According to The Sun, Joss had gotten married just this past Valentine's Day to his husband, Tristan, after a seven-month engagement. We are standing with him amid this horrific news.
